Judge bars ICE from taking some violent actions against religious activists, journalists (RNS) β€” The suit was primarily brought by journalists who allege they have been targeted by federal agents, but the list of plaintiffs also included the Rev. David Black, a Chicago-area Presbyterian…

The order hands a win to activists who say their right to religious freedom has been violated by law enforcement who repeatedly shot them with pepper balls and other projectiles.

At Faithful America, we are horrified and deeply disturbed by the tragic killing of Charlie Kirk. While we disagreed with Kirk on many things, as Christians who follow the Prince of Peace we fully and unequivocally reject all acts of violence, political or otherwise.

A word of warning from Rev. Dr. Shannon Fleck. If your congregation or church body uses federal dollars, there's a new caveat from the Trump administration. You can read more here: dianabutlerbass.substack.com/p/religion-i...

"By allowing pulpit endorsements, the IRS is ramming a bulldozer through the crumbling wall between church and state. Pulpit endorsements will do as much to erode trust in clergy and undermine the sanctity of our religious practicies as they will to the health of our democracy.

"Sanctuaries are meant for worship, not partisan agendas and politicking. Church offering plates are meant for tithes and charity, not political contributions."

Quote by The Rev. Dr. Shannon Fleck that reads: "The Senate’s vote to pass the mislabeled β€˜big, beautiful bill’ is a complete and utter betrayal of all Americans, especially the most vulnerable in our communities. Trump and his allies on Capitol Hill may proclaim the Lord’s name, but their actions do not match their words. This is made plain by their support for a bill that cuts aid for vulnerable communities and pits them against one another while using that money to provide tax cuts for Trump and his billionaire friends to line their own pockets. We may have lost this vote, but we are not deterred from our sacred duty as Christians to love our neighbors and work toward a more just world.”
